This well-travelled trail is a local favourite. With its panoramic views of the Peace River, this trail offers 20-35 kms (one way) of amazing landscapes. Note: one wooden gate must be opened on the trail; be sure to close it behind you. Directions: Highway 97 south to Taylor, cross the bridge, third left (large dirt road) and follow for several kms to a large gravel pit on left. Park and continue on quads.

This trail is a two hour drive north of Fort St. John; watch for the signs just past the Buckinghorse Service Station on the Alaska Highway. It is very scenic and there are private cabins along the way that may be rented. As well, the club has an open cabin near Redfern Lake. This trail is for experienced riders only and outdoor survival skills are highly recommended.
